php-mysql is linked to libmysqlclient. But libmysqlclient is not longer LGPL.
The license of libmysqlclient V4 is now GPL (check the sources in libmysql and
libmysql_r directory).
PHP license is incompatible with GPL :
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html
----------------------------
The PHP License, Version 3.0.
This license is used by most of PHP4. It is a non-copyleft free software
license which is incompatible with the GNU GPL.
We recommend that you not use this license for anything except PHP add-ons.
The Zend License, Version 2.0.
This license is used by one part of PHP4. It is a non-copyleft free software
license which is incompatible with the GNU GPL, and has practical problems like
those of the original BSD license.
We recommend that you not use this license for anything you write.
----------------------------
This new conflit also applies to apache_mod_mysql.
